(*) The Constitution shall never be construed... to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms. by: Samuel Adams

(*) We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution. -
In 1859 by: Abraham Lincoln

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1837)wrote this song:

Which was sung at the Completion of the Battle Monument, July 4, 1837

By the crude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April’s breeze unfurled,
Here once the embattled farmers stood
And fired the shot heard round the world.

The foe long since in silence slept;
Alike the conqueror silent sleeps;
And Time the ruined bridge has swept
Down the dark stream which seaward creeps.

On this green bank, by this soft stream,
We set today a votive stone;
That memory may their deed redeem,
When, like our sires, our sons are gone.

Spirit, that made those heroes dare
To die, and leave their children free,
Bid Time and Nature gently spare
The shaft we raise to them and thee.

A Seaman's Prayer

O Heavenly Father, creator of the seas, Bless us as we assemble for this most solemn remembrance. We give you thanks for all your servants who go to sea in ships and those who have paid the supreme sacrifice by giving their lives in the service of their nation.

The passing of over 245 years has not diminished our love and gratitude for the thousands who went to sea and never returned, and for our Brother Shipmates who have gone to meet them in your loving, eternal embrace.

O Father, grant his/her family today, and in the days hereafter, peace and comfort in the glory of his service to his fellow man, and in the knowledge he sails with you, O Lord, our maker and protector.

O Eternal Lord God, who alone spreads out the heavens and rules the raging of the seas, receive into your protection all those who go down to the sea in ships and occupy their business on the great waters. Preserve them both in body and soul, prosper their labors with good success, in all times of danger, be their defense, and bring them to the haven where they would be, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

A pledge: “Non Sibi Sed Patriae” - (Means: Not for self, but for Country)
